Any cat lover will have one's patience strictly put to the test if he puts some cats in his home.
Currently, once a cat decides it wants to sit on your chest or bed, you're basically screwed.
There is NOTHING you can do to make that cat chance its mind, short of actually killing it. you can, *IF* the cat is placed in a way that allows it (which is definitely not all the time far from it), try to push it down yourself, but the crazy mob will seemingly freak out trying its dang best to climb back up every time, all the time.
Bummer.
I find the basic idea of this feature interesting, but there should be a way to make the cat understand who's the real boss.
I'd fix it like this:
"Wants to climb on bed or chest" behavior should have less prority than "attracted to fish" or "fleeing when hurt". If you push a cat out of a bed/chest, then it will maybe make a frustrated sound but would move away, and definitely not seemingly immediately try to climb back up.
Cats are suppost to be annoying, and I never really have any in my houses, so I don't know what you're talking about, but I can understand that certain things designed to be annoying are well... Annoying. Maybe a nerf is necessary.
"Just don't put cats in your house!" actually means "I agree with you they are too annoying", it doesn't mean "cats are fine as they are".
Duh!
It would be cool that cats would be like horses and have personality attributes.
Some would love chests others would love beds others would rather use the floor.
Some would be friendly others quite easily to irritate.
Some would be quick to forgive while others could really hate you for a long time if you "bothered" them.
Some would be fearful others aggressive.
Even walking speed and "nervousness" could be cat attributes.
So you could have one cat that quickly leaves a bed or chest when you approach too close, and come right up to you, as if asking for a fish treat, while another cat will not want to leave and then attack you until he's taken sufficient damage, and all kinds of stuff in between, like the super-lazy cat that just plops on the ground when you put it out of the bed/chest, seemingly without any reaction,not budging or a long while afterwards, from the freakishly nervous cat jumping everywhere.
As long as I have a way to get those damn cats out of a chest when I need to access it then anything is fine!
Just let me have house cats WITHOUT making it constantly and totally impossible to access chests. This "cat in bed / on chests" is cool as a decorative thing, or maybe even as a minor and temporary annoyance, but not as a total block completely preventing you from accessing your stuff!
I'm gonna have to agree here. I always thought the implementation of cats doing annoying stuff was an absolute durrrrrr moment on Jeb's part. It may have been kind of funny or cute the first time, but it gets stupid after that. And the argument of "well um cats do dat in real life so ya" doesn't magically make the implementation sound good.
Then again, if cats are being retarded (such as following me out of nowhere when I wanted them to be sitting) I just encase them in glass blocks. I'd like a way for cats to just not be derpish, then I won't bend my cats' spines at 90° with my diamond sword in a slow and agonizing manner, then have to catch fish to find more ocelots who will probably meet the same fate.
